The base 2021 Lexus LS 500 comes with 19-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights and taillights, and a hands-free power liftgate. This vehicle also has soft-close doors and a sunroof.

A 3.5-liter twin-turbo V-6 gas engine powers the 2021 Lexus LS 500. This engine generates 416 horsepower and gets 442 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive comes standard and a 10-speed automatic transmission, but you can opt for an all-wheel-drive system. The 500h model uses a 3.5-liter V-6 gas engine and two electric motors. These components combine to generate 354 horsepower.

The 2021 Lexus LS 500 has more power in its base model than any other vehicle in its class. The V-6 engine easily propels the large sedan and provides quick, efficient acceleration. Opting for the hybrid powertrain will give you the same acceleration power, and this powertrain works with a CVT.
